On Monday's The Late Show on CBS, host Stephen Colbert prodded liberal actress Jane Fonda to promote her alarmist views on global warming as the environmental activist hyperbolically claimed that "humankind is facing the greatest crisis that we've ever faced," and repeated the often used 10-year deadline to impose regulations to prevent world catastrophe.
Fonda -- who has credited environmental alarmist Greta Thunberg with inspiring her to become a frequent protester on the issue -- described young environmental activists as "suffering" from "extinction illness."
STEPHEN COLBERT: I want to talk to you about a subject near and dear to your heart -- and it should be near and dear to all of our hearts. You've started these Fire Drill Fridays about climate change. Tell me what your objective is here.
FONDA: And so I said, "Okay, I'm going to -- I'm famous -- I have a platform -- I'm going to move to D.C. -- I'm going to put my body on the line -- and I'm going to do these things, and in the process, I'm going to learn a lot, too." And the young people have been with me all the way. And it's incredible what's happened. (AUDIENCE APPLAUSE) Every Friday -- I thought it would kind of peter out -- every Friday there is more and more people, and they come from all over. And most of them have never engaged in civil disobedience before and risk getting arrested.
Colbert followed up by asking her if "the police down there -- are they fed up with you leading these protests?" leading her to reply: "I'm white and I'm famous, and so, you know, what happens is different from what would happen if I was a person of color and I wasn't famous."

We’re all gonna die! I’ll be looking forward to the end of the world in 2030.
Wow, Fonda and Colbert, two people I despise.
Hey, at least it wasn’t the version with the pic of them. :-)
Tell ya what colbert- fonda=- you two sit around with cases of peptol bismol worrying your brains to a frazzle, frettign till the cows come home to fart-
meanwhile I’ll be enjoying life secure in the knowledge that this planet of ours will be around for a guaranteed minimum of 1007 more years ( years of tribulation, 1000 years of Christ reigning as king over all the earth)
LOL. It’s time for Dr. Anthony Rothschild to issue a revised edition of the “Clinical Manual for Diagnosis and Treatment of Psychotic Depression.”
[[”suffering” from “extinction illness.”]]
Bahahahaha- just when you thought the left couldn’t be any more insane, along comes this gem of a claim-
Hey Jane, you spelled “MENTAL” Wrong- it doesn’t start with an “E”
“10-year deadline”
Wait, what? What happened to 1.16 years?
Wonder how much electricity is used / the carbon footprint of producing AND watching his TV show
NOT FONDA JANE
WAIT A MINUTE! I thought algore only gave us 10 years to live 25 years ago.

Inflation?
With these LIBs one not only doesn’t know but hard to even fathom what they are doing.
They’re the two stupidest people on earth.
Doesn’t this kind of hysterical, irresponsible crap just give our nutty young ones a license to go wild? I mean, if the world ends in 10 years, screw it! Let’s tear it all down!
too fast it was few months ago AOC promised 12 years.
The only way to deal with these chardonnay socialists is to constantly get in their faces and show the people the disconnect between the way they live and the way they tell everybody else how they should live
